Introduction: Listeners can rapidly adapt to English speech produced by non-native speakers of English with unfamiliar accents. Prior work has shown that the type and number of talkers contained within a stimulus set may impact rate and magnitude of learning, as well as any generalization of learning. However, findings across the literature have been inconsistent, with relatively little study of these effects in populations of older listeners.
Methods: In this study, adaptation and generalization to unfamiliar talkers with familiar and unfamiliar accents are studied in younger normal-hearing adults and older adults with and without hearing loss. Rate and magnitude of adaptation are modelled using both generalized linear mixed effects regression and generalized additive mixed effects modelling.
Results: Rate and magnitude of adaptation were not impacted by increasing the number of talkers and/or varying the consistency of non-native English accents across talkers. Increasing the number of talkers did strengthen generalization of learning for a talker with a familiar non-native accent, but not for an unfamiliar accent. Aging alone did not diminish adaptation or generalization.
Discussion: These findings support prior evidence of a limited benefit for talker variability in facilitating generalization of learning for non-native accented speech, and extend the findings to older adults.

Short-term memory can be disrupted by task-irrelevant sound. Auditory distraction has been globally studied under the lens of two main phenomena: the deviation effect and the changing-state effect. Yet, it remains unclear whether they rely on common cerebral mechanisms and, concomitantly, what psychophysiological responses they can trigger. This scoping review provides a state of knowledge regarding psychophysiological indices of auditory distraction. Records published between 2001 and 2021 on the deviation effect and the changing-state effect with psychophysiological measures were extracted from PubMed, ERIC, PsycNet, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect. Records investigating task-relevant sounds, as well as those that failed to observe performance disruption, or to include a control condition or a concurrent cognitive task, were excluded from the review. The Revised Cochrane risk-of-bias tool for randomized trials was used for bias evaluation. Fifteen records were reviewed, mainly characterized by randomization, measurement and selection of results biases. Some markers were specific to the distraction type, but nonspecific responses were also found. Overall, we outline the main markers used to index auditory distraction, present their meaning for understanding underpinning mechanisms, and discuss implications and knowledge gaps that need to be filled to fully exploit psychophysiology for auditory distraction research.
短期记忆会被与任务无关的声音打断。全球范围内对听觉分心的研究主要有两种现象:偏离效应和状态变化效应。然而，目前尚不清楚它们是否依赖于共同的大脑机制，以及它们能引发什么样的心理生理反应。本综述提供了一个关于听觉分心的心理生理指标的知识状态。从PubMed、ERIC、PsycNet、Web of Science和ScienceDirect中提取2001 - 2021年间发表的关于心理生理测量的偏差效应和状态变化效应的记录。调查任务相关声音的记录，以及那些未能观察到表现中断，或包括控制条件或并发认知任务的记录，都被排除在审查之外。采用Cochrane随机试验风险偏倚评估工具进行偏倚评估。回顾了15条记录，主要特点是随机化、测量和结果偏差选择。一些标记是特定于分心类型的，但也发现了非特异性反应。总体而言，我们概述了用于索引听觉分心的主要标记，提出了它们对理解基础机制的意义，并讨论了充分利用听觉分心研究的心理生理学需要填补的含义和知识空白。

ABSTRACTIntroduction Temporal summation describes a relationship between loudness and duration: increasing the duration also increases loudness. However, this relationship was studied mainly for pure tones (PTs) and not for complex sounds, mainly speech.Methods Twenty-four young adults with normal hearing participated in the study. Hearing thresholds were measured to five steady-state speech shape noise (SSN) of/a/, /i/, /u/, /sh/, and /m/, three PTs (0.5, 1, and 4 kHz), and white noise (WN). Thresholds were measured separately for five durations: 1, 5, 20, 50, and 100 ms.Results As hypothesized, temporal summation for PTs was greater than for complex sounds. PTs had greater temporal summation for 500 and 1,000 Hz, than 4,000 Hz, but SSNs had the reverse pattern, with less temporal summation for sounds with a lower first formant than for those with a higher one.Discussion Noise stimuli differ in energy and spectral range, and these two factors seem to affect temporal summation. A wider frequency range shows lower sensitivity to changes in duration, thus showing less temporal summation than a narrower spectrum.KEYWORDS: Temporal summationnoise stimulispeech-shaped noise Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by Ariel University internal fund RA1900000488.

ABSTRACTThe ability to extract meaning from acoustic environments requires sensitivity to repeating sound structures. Yet, how events that repeat are encoded and maintained in the brain and how the brain responds to events that reoccur at later points in time is not well understood. In two electroencephalography experiments, participants listened to a longer, ongoing white-noise sound which comprised shorter, frozen noise snippets that repeated at a regular 2-Hz rate. In several conditions, the snippet repetition discontinued for a brief period after which the noise snippet reoccurred. The experiments aimed to answer whether neural activity becomes entrained by the regular repetition of noise snippets, whether entrained neural activity self-sustains during the discontinuation period, and how the brain responds to a reoccurring noise snippet. Results show that neural activity is entrained by the snippet repetition, but there was no evidence for self-sustained neural activity during the discontinuation period. However, the auditory cortex responded with similar magnitude to a noise snippet reoccurring after a brief discontinuation as it responded to a noise snippet for which the snippet repetition had not been discontinued. This response invariance was observed for different onset times of the reoccurring noise snippet relative to the previously established regularity. The results thus demonstrate that the auditory cortex sensitively responds to, and thus maintains a memory trace of, previously learned acoustic noise independent of temporal interruptions.KEYWORDS: Electroencephalographyfrozen noisetemporal regularityauditory perceptionneural synchronization AcknowledgmentsWe thank Christie Tsagopoulos for her help with data collection for both experiments.

Introduction: Orofacial somatosensory inputs modify the perception of speech sounds. Such auditory-somatosensory integration likely develops alongside speech production acquisition. We examined whether the somatosensory effect in speech perception varies depending on individual characteristics of speech production.
Methods: The somatosensory effect in speech perception was assessed by changes in category boundary between /e/ and /ø/ in a vowel identification test resulting from somatosensory stimulation providing facial skin deformation in the rearward direction corresponding to articulatory movement for /e/ applied together with the auditory input. Speech production performance was quantified by the acoustic distances between the average first, second and third formants of /e/ and /ø/ utterances recorded in a separate test.
Results: The category boundary between /e/ and /ø/ was significantly shifted towards /ø/ due to the somatosensory stimulation which is consistent with previous research. The amplitude of the category boundary shift was significantly correlated with the acoustic distance between the mean second - and marginally third - formants of /e/ and /ø/ productions, with no correlation with the first formant distance.
Discussion: Greater acoustic distances can be related to larger contrasts between the articulatory targets of vowels in speech production. These results suggest that the somatosensory effect in speech perception can be linked to speech production performance.
